There is a new winter sports option for Chillicothe high school girls that don’t wish to play Basketball. MSHSAA has approved Girls Wrestling for this winter’s sports season.
At Chillicothe High School, Wrestling Coach Chad Smith said he has six girls out so far, and says he might have more try the sport.
Coach Smith says the girls use the same practice facility as the boy wrestlers.
Smith says the plan is for the girls team to wrestle at the same meet as the boys with a double-header format.
A full schedule for the season and District breakdowns are not yet finalized.
For more on Hornets and Lady Hornets wrestling listen for Randy Dean’s interview with Coach Chad Smith on Friday’s Winter Pre-Season Sports Show at 8:30am and 6:00pm on KCHI.
